Default A sad day for the CRX :( :thumbdown:

Got rear ended, then pushed under the car in front of me last night





Already found a new hood/headlight and bumper, but they are painted yellow.

Not sure how to strip the paint off the bumper trim. Any ideas?

would dabbing some paint thinner on a shop towel and rubbing it off work?

Well, got the front end back together and rattlecanned. It isn't great but isn't too bad. A bit streaky on the hood. I will get a real paint job pretty soon. Don't worry.

Before





After

It doesn't match the stock paint very well, but its not bad. At least it isn't yellow.
